Autonomous Vehicle Operation Feature Monitoring and Evaluation of Effectiveness

2. The computer system of claim 1, wherein the one or more preferred control decisions and the one or more actual control decisions are virtually time-stamped for comparison of such controlled and actual control decisions based upon matching virtual time stamps.

7. The computer system of claim 1, wherein the one or more actual control decisions include a control decision to change lanes or to turn the autonomous vehicle.

8. The computer system of claim 1, wherein the one or more actual control decisions include (i) a control decision to accelerate or to decelerate, or (ii) an indication of a rate of acceleration or deceleration.

9. The computer system of claim 1, wherein the additional sensor data indicates (i) one or more environmental conditions in which the vehicle collision occurred and (ii) an identification of a person positioned within the autonomous vehicle to operate the autonomous vehicle at the time of the vehicle collision.

10. The computer system of claim 1, wherein the executable instructions further cause the computer system to adjust a risk level or model parameter associated with the autonomous vehicle or the autonomous system based upon the one or more actual control decisions made by the autonomous system.

12. The tangible, non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 11, wherein the one or more preferred control decisions and the one or more actual control decisions are virtually time-stamped for comparison of such controlled and actual control decisions based upon matching virtual time stamps.

17. The tangible, non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 11, wherein the one or more actual control decisions include a control decision to change lanes or to turn the autonomous vehicle.

18. The tangible, non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 11, wherein the one or more actual control decisions include a control decision to accelerate or to decelerate.

19. The tangible, non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 11, wherein the additional sensor data indicates (i) one or more environmental conditions in which the vehicle collision occurred and (ii) an identification of a person positioned within the autonomous vehicle to operate the autonomous vehicle at the time of the vehicle collision.
